Boston Basils, Kailua Kona

We stopped in after a long tiring day hiking to beaches on the Big Island. At Boston Basil's we were refreshed by great pizza, great staff, owner and drinks. We were treated like family, given travel advise, even borrowed a Hawaii book to look through while we were there for the week. We tried 4-5 different kinds of pizza throughout the week and were impressed with every one of them! Couldn't ask for anything better! I would definitely recommend stopping this restaurant! We also tend to be late night eaters and found that many restaurant stopped serving early (9:00). Basil's was open until 9:30 so that gave us a little more time to get in.

Went last night 11/27/09 the service was horrible! If you are a tourist you will be cheated on your bill. We had a family of 5. Gratuity of 18% is added on parties of 5 or more. They also added 5 items to our bill assuming we would not catch this. They were wrong! Don't go food suck's as bad as their service. Cory A

The food is awful. Cheap ingredients for a huge price. I live here and even gave them a second chance. Both times the food was poor and the place is not clean. Yuck!

This was tied for my least favorite meal I had on my 11 day trip to the islands. My wife, two kids and I split two pasta dishes, and had plenty of food left over. The vegetables were overcooked and the pasta was stringy, but there was a lot of it. The wait staff was unfriendly and unhelpful. We paid 70 dollars for the two pasta dishes, one glass of wine and three non-alcoholic drinks.

A great place to eat, good food, good service. My favorite is the greek salad, very large portion, fresh and good!. I eat here often and highly recommend it!
